Michigan football redshirt tracker: Several freshmen on verge of burning eligibility

Michigan football has a young group in 2025, and several true freshmen have already contributed in game action this season, led by quarterback Bryce Underwood.

Several who have made key contributions are already on the verge of burning their redshirt statuses, as others who signed with Michigan's class of 2025 who haven't seen game action or have seen limited time will be expected to retain a year of eligibility.

Of course, if the Wolverines' coaching staff feels a player can help the team contribute to the 2025 team at a high level, those guys are going to play regardless of whether it's their first year on campus or not. It should be noted that once a player in his first year of eligibility participates in more than four games during the season, that player then loses the extra year of eligibility and therefore "burns" his redshirt status. However, the NCAA is considering doing away with the rule and allowing athletes to be full participants in five seasons over a five-year span, which might change how the Wolverines approach using its freshmen.

Here is a look at each true freshman on Michigan's roster with a breakdown of how many games they have played and how many snaps each has been on the field for.
